holy shit, I've been gone since the 21st?!? Of July? Well, hell. That deserves an update, huh?

So I wasn't lying, I have spent an inordinate amount of time playing Civ V. as always, an amazingly addictive game. But since I am also completely unable to pay attention to any one thing at any one time, I've also been re-watching Mad Men now that it is streaming on Netflix. Love that show. Seriously! Though it is extremely hard to watch is 100% sober, just too many tasty looking cocktails to be sampled.

Ok, what else? I haven't spent the last two+ weeks just playing games and watching tv. Well, let's see. I've started a new job search. I'm completely sick of working for the place I work. Actually that isn't 100% true. I love where I work, just not who I work for. My boss is... well... she's in constant need of validation. And she can't seem to work well with others, so she looks for it a lot. A ton of us-versus-them shit. And, I sort of like some of the "them" so I don't see it. I've been waiting for her to get canned for a while now, but since it is starting to look like that won't happen anytime in the near future, I'm starting the search for new employment. Not that I expect to find anything soon. It isn't as if there is a thriving market for print designers. No matter how good (and I like to amuse myself with the notion that I'm pretty good). But I won't ever find one, if I don't start. Right?

Anything else? Well, I made a Key Lime Pie last night. That was pretty good. Looks good, right?
